The 6th Annual Tudor & Stuart Ireland Interdisciplinary Conference was held in the Moore Institute, National University of Ireland, Galway, on 19-20 August 2016. This year’s programme saw more than 40 speakers present research papers on a wide range of topics with plenaries by Prof. Mary O’Dowd (Queen’s University Belfast), and Prof. Andrew Hadfield (University of Sussex), as well as a special panel session ‘Shakespeare and Ireland‘ and a session in honour of Professor Steven Ellis.

The 2016 conference saw History Hub continue its successful partnership with Tudor and Stuart Ireland with the production of podcasts of conference proceedings. These podcasts, recorded and produced by Real Smart Media, are now available on iTunes and Soundcloud and have been added to the substantial archive of podcasts from previous Tudor and Stuart Ireland conferences.

Tudor and Stuart Ireland podcasts are available for download from iTunes and to stream on Soundcloud totally free of charge. There are more than 150 episodes available in total and the podcasts have proved to be tremendously popular with 57,000 podcast downloads/plays to date.
